Hey all. @tk: just touched up the edge after using it for about a week at work and home on natural aoto, then Jyunsyouhonyama and final stone was Ozuku Asagi followed by strops 1 micon boron, chromium oxide, and .25 diamond. First two were on balsa last on leather. Used it before I did the video earlier in the day so took it to the strops last night.

TDj: Both are great made of AS, but since I'm a lefty have to go with the Kanehiro, it feels lighter and I personally the handles on moritaka's are heavy but both are great.
